Now available through William Pitt Sotheby’s International Realty, this property provides more than four wonderful acres of natural splendor, complete with all that those who enjoy the outdoors could desire. Sweeping green lawns are surrounded by and dotted with dogwood and evergreen trees, and roll down to a beautiful stream-fed pond. The flowing water leads past granite cliffs and the verdant, sprawling back country scenery. Adjacent to the pond, a bird sanctuary carries the lovely sounds of bird song across the grounds.
